💨 Abstract
Flash flooding in Montgomery County, including a 145-inch water spike on Sligo Creek, highlights an increasing trend of severe storms. County officials, including Executive Marc Elrich and climate change officer Sarah Kogel-Smucker, attribute this to climate change and emphasize the need for infrastructure adaptation. The county has a 20-point plan with significant progress, and residents are urged to stay informed and avoid flooded roads during warnings.
